Fed up

I have suffered with depression and anxiety for over 14 years.I'm on strong meds at the moment.Lately,especially today have felt really run down,tearful and fed up of everything.Getting constant headaches,pains in chest (on and off) and giddiness.I just want to know if there's a way to help myself feel better?

I think Maggie has a point about the anxiety. But you might want to mention this to your doctor just incase. But anxiety can have a lot of physical symptoms.

If you are interested, there is a book called "feeling good" by Dr. David Burns. It is a good book about cognative behavioral therapy. I find it very helpful. I have had the book since in the 80's so it has been around for a long time. I had lost mine and got another copy on amazon for only 6.00. Also there are a couple of free online services that could help you.
